Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Acts 15:1-41

Acts 15:1 . Certain men which came down from Judea. Epiphanius says, Cerinthus the heretic was one of the principals in this dissension. But they were, no doubt, of the devil’s sending, to disquiet the brethren, and distress the church. See the note on Acts 15:5. Except ye be circumcised.

Daniel Whedon

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Acts 15:1-41

PART THIRD. CHRISTIANITY AMONG THE GENTILES. From Chapter Acts 13:1, to End of Acts. Through the remainder of his work Luke’s subject is the evangelization of the Gentiles, and his hero is Paul.
